LOVE these!

Kid Hazo installed a new series this past Sunday morning along Chestnut street between Broad and 18th that plays on those ubiquitous Visit Philly ads…

In case you need a little help cracking the ‘Dear Street Art Lovers’ one: We got Tagged Up Elephants (Cornbread), Sticker Characters (The Sticky Bandits), Black and white paper cut outs (Joe Burochow), Yarn bombed stuff (Ishknits) , stick dudes (Stikman), Mythical Animal Murals (NoseGo), Braille Art (Sonia and Austin), Conspiracy Street tiles (Toynbee Tiles) AND Ben Franklin wheat paste stencily janws (Get Up Art).

    I agree with Nina, there are kids who do street art that blows this (and most of your “mainstreet” list) outta the water. I thought I finaly came to a legit site, and as a Philly artist I know most of that list is trash… (not tonybee or getup though).
